What a drive and wedge by Fowler on 18, deserves to win it.

Nicely in form for the Open next weeek.

Good scoring in perfect conditions in Switzerland this week fabulous looking place. A few big names in the field - Garcia, Westwood, Willett.... Top of the Irish is Peter Lawrie on -5 after two rounds.

vienne86 · 25-07-2015 9:22am

The 1 unders made it to the weekend, so Garcia survived. Peter Lawrie best of the Irish, out with Bernd Wiesberger.

vienne86 · 25-07-2015 7:54pm

Great to see Philip Walton going along nicely in Sunningdale - -6 for the tournamet right now, after 11, three behind the lead.

abff · 26-07-2015 12:27pm

Great to see Peter Lawrie having a good weekend round for a change. 65 today has him currently in a tie for 20th. Should finish in the top 25 or thereabouts and pick up between €25,000 and €30,000 plus a world ranking point or two.

Surprisingly, he's moved up a few places since he finished. Now in a 6 way tie for 16th. Some strange scoring going on out there. Lee Westwood has had a 10 at the par 5 14th. :eek:

Monty looked pretty irritated with Langer on the 12th green. Monty was trying to tap in for his bogey while Langer was repairing 101 pitchmarks in readiness for his birdie putt which he duly dispatched. After back-to-back bogeys, Monty is tiring of the slowness of his playing partners and Langer knows it.

The master tactician knows exactly what he's doing

Marco Dawson is looking good. He never won a PGA tour event - best finish was second. More interestingly he was involved in two incidents involving the disqualification of playing partners after incorrect drops. The players involved were Brandel Chamblee and Esteban Toledo. Toledo was so pissed he sacked the agent they both shared. Don't see too much talk with Dawson and his playing partners. I'm cheering for Dawson at the moment but he is painfully slow.

lostatsea · 26-07-2015 6:08pm

Those young English players, Willett, Hatton and Fitzpatrick, are a breath of fresh air and great for the game in England.

lostatsea · 26-07-2015 7:05pm

Great win for Marco. It is great to see a journeyman golfer taste major success.

Monty seemed to be really pissed off, but that is Monty. Great to see Philip Walton on page 1 of the leaderboard. €48,705 for his week's work too.

It looks like they are actually managing to get the Madeira Open played without fog delays! Ruaidhri Magee and Kevin Phelan the only ones insided the projected cut line at the moment.

vienne86 · 31-07-2015 2:13pm

Another 69 from Kevin Phelan has him nicely in the mix.

vienne86 · 31-07-2015 5:24pm

Michael Hoey has won again today in the matchplay in Aberdeen. Meets Gregory Havret in round 3 tomorrow.

Diego Tristan · 01-08-2015 12:28pm

Hoey destroyed Havret 7&6 this morning to make it to the last 8 at the matchplay in Aberdeen.

Even if he loses the quarter he'll get €38,500, which takes him to over €233,000 for the season, which is right about the amount that was needed last year to keep your card.

So win the quarter and I'd say his card is safe!

Rikand · 01-08-2015 6:34pm

Michael hoey beaten in the quarters by Aphibarnrat

Semi final lineup

David Howell vs Robert Karlson
Aphibarnrat vs Marc Warren

Hoey had a complete collapse. Went from two up to nowhere on the back nine. Last few holes were ugly. We've all had such days I suppose.

abff · 02-08-2015 10:56am

Nice finish to the Warren-Hatton match, with Warren holing his approach shot for an eagle two and Hatton laughing and giving him a high five. Great to see such sportsmanship.

Important win for Warren. He needed to make the semis to get into the top 50 in the world rankings and gain a place in next week's WGC event.

vienne86 · 02-08-2015 10:57am

Kevin Phelan had been going so well in Madeira, but is +2 so far today thanks to a double on the 3rd hole.

It's developed into a full scale meltdown, unfortunately. Now 6 over after 7 holes.

Mantis Toboggan · 02-08-2015 5:11pm

Just looking at the top 10, can't say I know any of them.

What next for European tour!

vienne86 · 17-08-2015 4:02pm

Plenty of Irish interest this week's field in Denmark - Clarke, Hoey, McGrane, Phelan, Thornton and Lawrie all playing.

vienne86 · 20-08-2015 4:22pm

Nice 5 under opening round from Peter Lawrie. Tied 4th.

Very nice interview by some English journalist with Peter Lawrie on RTE radio this evening.

Probably Nick Dye.

Nice to see Peter Lawrie in another strong position at the half way mark. Let's hope this is the week he breaks his pattern of moving backwards on Saturday.

There's a very large field playing for the weekend - 87 in total! Can't remember the last time I saw as many as 28 players tied on the cut mark.

Tied sixth for Peter Lawrie. But Damian McGrane's miserable season continues.
